Peñitas, whose name means "little stones," is a city of about 6,500 people (2020 census) next to La Joya, about 14 miles west of McAllen. Its roots go back to José de Escandón's 18th-century colonization of the Rio Grande, and it incorporated as a city in 1992. Today it's a mix of established neighborhoods, newer rural subdivisions and land.
